Before this season began, a lot of narratives were being thrown around the NBA community around Devin Booker. We have seen labels much along the lines of inefficient shot-chucker and having the audacity to compare him to names such as Donovan Mitchell on Twitter, who just entered the league with Utah.
From my point of view, I never understood it.
Before this season, I wasn’t around the team as much as I am now, but the burden of the offensive workload a 20-year-old had to carry was steep, but he flashed all-around potential in small doses that got the Phoenix fanbase excited.
